Case report: abdominal tuberculosis in a renal transplant recipient with a diabetes mellitus

Abstract

Post-transplant TB is a serious problem worldwide. Abdominal tuberculosis is a rare disease presented by non-specific symptoms, laboratory and radiography findings that make it difficult to diagnose. Early diagnosis and prompt initiation of treatment for TB among renal transplant patients is very important and vital. We report here a case of abdominal tuberculosis in renal transplant recipient with a diabetes mellitus.
